I make, I build, I love tech, geekery and good natured people. I'm the chief ninja at MindKits, the Arduino and tinkering specialists.

@wgussml Definitely interested to try this out. Early access still open?

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

Hey that's me! Nice one @weareprintlab

@burgerfuel_nz serving moody buns at your Cambridge, NZ store is just not ok and my daughter ate half this garbage before we spotted it.

@Viridancium I've got a crazy great idea if you're bored. Your clue is invoice #113770

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@NzWaikato and @stephen_PtC Do you have any advice for helping these kids reach their goal?

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

Listen to the interview with Alex Hipperson from Hobsonville Primary. They’re taking their Aquabots to the US to compete. Listen to his interview (bottom of page)! This kid is incredible. https://t.co/8yptQE3zbb

@stephen_PtC @snapmaker @NzWaikato @andymakes_ Hijacking you’re awesome project to ask if anyone remembers a site that would generate toothed interfaces for lasercut projects. Would make it so a cube for eg would have dove tailed edges that fit together.

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@stephen_PtC @snapmaker @PtChevSchool Love the etching. Protip: you can also use a weak solution of borax and water. Apply to the wood and you’ll get stunningly dark and crisp etches

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

Lipo batteries in NZ seem hard to get for hobby projects so I brought some in. Does this pricing works?

@stephen_PtC @MindKitsElf @snapmaker Just shout out if we can help. It’s a super fun build and I really love the @Snapmaker. Can’t wait for the 10w laser.

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@stephen_PtC @NzWaikato @snapmaker If you want cutting, the Flux laser cutters we have are fantastic value and performance for schools. Good safety features too

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@stephen_PtC @NzWaikato @snapmaker Etches well. Cuts very thin stuff (1.5mm). There’s a 10w laser upgrade coming that’ll cut through all the things.

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@oddynz Good bro. It’s a weird time in the world but I try and focus on the things I have control of and not the other things. How’re you doing?

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

Wow it’s been a while since I’ve been on twitter.
So, what’s good and who should I be following in the world of tech/makers/3d printing?

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@KiwiMrDee I miss all the creative people talking about what moves them and inspires them. I don’t miss the tinfoil hats and loud typing noises from angry people.

[Michelle Dickinson PhD @medickinson]

I've seen some tin foil hats being made recently and it struck me that their designs aren't very effective. I thought I'd help by explaining some of the key scientific principles needed to make the perfect shield for your brain from (the perfectly safe) electromagnetic radiation

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@vivsterNZ @TheSewphist @NathanGracie @OMGTechRangers Honestly, there should be and it’s something that’s been on my mind but against larger US companies, it’s not something I can tackle without scale as it’s a lot to prep(irony in the name of that US company too).

[Mindkits (Tim) @MindKits]

@GristC Drop me an email and I’ll sort you out Monday. We had to disable the parts as um changed all the pricing
